SMOOTH LEATHER - DEEP CLEANING
How-to: Remove laces from shoes and insert a shoe tree. Cover the surface you are going to work on
Products: Regent wooden shoe tree
How-to: Brush the leather in order to remove the surface dirt (e. g. mud, dust) paying attention to the corners and folds in the leather. Apply then a leather cleaner (Unicreme for any kind of leather, Delicate Cream for soft and delicate leather) by using a cotton cloth, with a delicate and circular motion

How-to: Apply Colorit (after choosing the colour matching the leather you are covering, or for mid tones it is possible to mix different colours) to cover the scratch. The cream needs to be applied with care by using a special polishing sponge or a cotton cloth. Apply on the scratched or ruined spots to nourish the leather and give the colour a new life

How-to: Apply 1909 Crème de Luxe by using a special handle brush (Flat Handle Brush or Round Handle Brush). For shoes, we suggest to start from the side and to apply it to the welt and to the side of the heel too, making sure the polish also penetrates the crease between the sole and the upper. Let it dry for about 10 minutes

How-to: Once the polish is completely dry, brush the leather with a special brush in order to remove the polish residues and to give a first polish. Once you have brushed the whole surface, it is now time to spread the polish: rub the leather with a cotton cloth

How-to: The high quality of Collonil polishes guarantees an optimum standard of waterproofing effect, but for an extra protective layer you can apply a Collonil waterproofing spray – we suggest Carbon Pro or 1909 Supreme Protect. Spray it outdoors, evenly from a distance of about 30 cm and let it dry completely
